The Masterpiece - So Far ...

Eight hours straight, and the last wall in the Stube was plastered. I admit, Jack covered twice as much ground in the same amount of time, but I am content, and happy with the result.


Of course there are always imperfections, which only E! and I will ever notice. Our conversation in that regard usually concerns how to deal with people who point out sub-standard work. I normally opt to not serve them anymore, whereas E! would just liquor them up until they love it. Obviously you want to make friends with E! ... ;-)

We had a visitor from the health department today. If you have been following this blog for a while, you know that I have a low opinion of the health department, but that is largely due to a few people we had to deal with. There are good people working there, people who are helpful, forthcoming, and who work with you. This one was of that kind. He looked at everything we had done, and he was happy with a few small exceptions, but nothing that can't be fixed.
